My hands tremble. I never found this case before in my café. I am so scared right now. What should I do? I think I have to call an ambulance. Yes, I have to do so. I don't want someone to die in my place. I don't want his spirit to become a ghost and haunt me and this place every day. Oh…God….Help me…
My fingertips almost press my cell phone screen when a cold hand grabs my wrist and makes me shocked.
"Don't do that." He said slowly.
"Are you okay?" I asked. He doesn't give me an answer but I know he wants to sit so I help him to sit. His face looks so pale. His red lips smear by blood.
Wait… Is he blind? Why do I feel something wrong with his eyes?
"I am alright." He answered. "I just want to come back right now."
"But you-"
Before I finished my word, I saw a beautiful young woman come in hurry. Her face looks so pale but her face becomes paler after sees me. What happens with her? She looked at me with a startled expression. Did I meet her before?
"Young Master…What's happened?" She asked him nervously before stared at me.
"I don't know, I find him here with this condition. I think he has to go to the doctor soon because his body temperature is so low. I just want to call an ambulance to bring him to hospital." I explained.
"Mei Hua just brought me back home." That man still insists on going back home without seeing a doctor. What happened to him? Why doesn't he want to go to hospital in this state?
"Alright." That young woman helped him to walk out of my place and then disappeared in mist.
What?!!!! How come they just disappeared like that? What I see right now? Is it ghosts? These scenes deliver goosebump all over my body.
Oh…God… I think I have to pray more. Fei Yang!!!! Where are you?! I am so scared right now? I call her by cell phone but she doesn't answer me. Fei Yang, why are you not here?
If they are a couple of spirits please don't haunt me tonight.
I take a deep breath then rush to close my cafe. I just want to go back home as soon as possible then sleep so I can forget what happened tonight.
Fei Yang was at home when I arrived. She looks so afraid. What happened to her? Is she okay? Her face looks so pale like no blood in her vein.
"Fei Yang, What happened to you?" I asked while putting my bag on the sofa then approached her.
"When you come back?" She asked me. I think she must be too shocked to realize that I got home a few minutes ago.
"I just arrived, and what happened to you?" I asked while sitting beside her on the sofa.
"Bai He Lian, I don't know what happened to me. Everything that happened during this time just made me confused."
Eh? Why does her words make me so confused?
Her eyes seem blank. I never saw Fei Yang in this state before so…to see her like this makes me curious.
"I just met him and he makes me…like…" She looked at me.
"Like…?"
"Have you ever been in this situation?" She asked.
"But what situation?" I am confused with her question.
"Like you meet someone who can make you do what they want."
Why do her words and questions become weird and creepy?
"Fei Yang do you know that I am so scared right now?"
Luo Fei Yang looked at me with an unbelievable gaze.
"Bai He Lian, I am the one that has to feel afraid not you. I don't know what happened to me. I think I'd give my body to a devil."
I screamed as I heard her mention about the devil because I remember the ghost that I saw at the café. My scream makes Fei Yang shocked until she hugs me tightly.
"Fei Yang, what do you mean?"
"Bai He Lian…I am scared please don't make me remember about it."
"Let's forget about creepy things tonight, okay?"
So…Tonight we decided to sleep together in my room because both of us are scared. I don't have any encouragement to ask more about the devil that she mentioned before.

This morning Luo Fei Yang and I are working in the café because we have to make money. Our face looked so pale and it made A Lin curious.
"What happened?" He asked.
"I just want to pray." I said without seeing him as I looked straight blankly.
"Pray?"
"Last night I saw a ghost here."
"Ghost?"
"Perhaps I had made a great mistake in my previous life." I said without thinking.
"And how about you?" A Lin asked Fei Yang who looked at him without any expression.
"I met a devil who wants to kill me."
A Lin laughing when hear Fei Yang's words. Is she mentioned about that young man who brought her home a few days ago?
"I think both of you just think too much. Look at your face! You are so pale. I think both of you can take a rest let me take care." A Lin said.
"No…I think I have to work hard so I can forget everything." I said.
"Bai He Lian, I agree with you." Luo Fei Yang looked at me with her pale face.
"I think both of you really need to take a rest."
How come I take a rest if I see that young woman just get in my café? She looks so human... but I can feel she is a ghost as she approaches us.
"He Lian, what happened?" Luo Fei Yang asked me.
I just want to say that she is a ghost but I cannot say a word until she is standing in front of me as she smiles. I have to admit this ghost is beautiful but why is she haunting me at the day?
"Can I talk with you?" She stared at me with her intimidating gaze.
"Feiiiii Yang…"
I looked around but I saw no one, only I and this ghost in this place. My body becomes numb as she comes closer and I try my best to step backward but I can do nothing because I am still at the same spot.
"What…What…What do you want?"
"I want to talk with you."
"If I want to talk with you, could you please not haunt me anymore?"
"I want you to take care of my Young Master."
"So tell me where his grave is so I can take care of him. Tell me what's his favorite, I will bring him whatever he likes just please don't haunt me like this."
"My Young Master is still alive so you don't need to bring anything except yourself because he needs you right now."
"What?! So…So…What are you? Why do I have to take care of him? What do you want to do if I don't want to do it?"
"I will kill you…."
